Petit Guiraud is a fresh and precise Sauternes, and is the result of a long period of reflection on the wine style and its drinkability. As the flagship for modernity and accessible pleasure, Petit Guiraud is a slice of luxury to be enjoyed every day.

Petit Guiraud was born of the desire to produce a contemporary sweet wine, accessible and light, for a moment of free and relaxed drinking.

It is made on the property's finest terroirs, from the same plots as its illustrious elder Château Guiraud, during a first selection of botrytised grapes with a lower concentration of sugar.

65% Sémillon and 35% Sauvignon Blanc.  A part is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, and another part in barrels. The different batches are fermented (for about three weeks) with indigenous yeasts until they reach their own balance based on their selection. The wine is aged for 12 months in one-wine barrels.
